The Modern Book Depot, Guwahati has released the top 10 NE book list (including some new releases).
Its great to see MBD issue such releases. I wish they also included the number of copies sold (like the NYT).
BTW: A bit of trivia: What does the dagger (looks like a + sign) besides a book in the NYT bestseller list signify?
